So despite some strong effort from a good few people, it doesn’t look like anything at all is going to change within Eve. Pretty resigned to getting into a new corp but I’m first going to give it a couple of weeks. I doubt very much (given track) history that anything will happen within those couple of weeks but after everything to date, it’s worth hoping and giving it a look.
Having given it some further thought, I don’t want to go and join Dave in a small corp with just the two of us. I still want the option to go down to 0.0 and fight when I want to. Xetic is a joke, the forum makes my head hurt. I did consider going to CA, but joining a loosing pirate alliance isn’t my idea of lots of fun. I’m quite tempted by pirating to be honest. I wouldn’t mind going out into some low spec space and have some fun. However I like my implants…
SA is looking like an option some good corps in there recruiting but I’m really thinking about going up the other side of the map, up North to places I don’t really know. Would be much nicer loot to say the least. Looking for a UK/Ireland majority in whatever I do end up going for. The other option and one that on balence may get it, is to actually train up an alt. Get a million skillpoints behind someone and then go out and have some fun. I can pay for it all with my main, I have some cash now and try and get into a BS and run rampage. I’ve enough stocks to kit up some ships nicely.
We’ll see, maybe this will just turn out to be idle speculation but I don’t have much faith based on track record to date.
In City of Heroes, well I figured that my fire/ice blaster wasn’t the best thing in the world so I made an assault/devices one instead. I have no end issues. I just took Hasten at level 8 and I’m looking forward to seeing how that lets me slaughter some more tonight. I can one shot minions 1 level below me, but it’s a two shot for the same level and sometimes a level above. Hoping that will get better when I can get some SO in there. Leveling nicely. Did 7-8 in about an hour in the Hollow’s last night. Tonight at least 9, 10 if I can get a good team and take on some higher levels. 10 has to be targetting drone for my accuracy and then it’s sniper rifle time. I really want to get my attacks up to good stuff at long range and make them damage. It’s one thing that I kinda dislike about CoH. I’m all planned out to at least level 16 and there is no real good reason for me to pick anything different. It takes some of the fun of levelling out when you know what you are going to get. At the same time, it’s always nice to have a goal.
On the non gaming front. My Soulwax and Modest Mouse tickets arrived yesterday which is good. I’m also going to go and see Charlotte Hatherley in a solo show on Sunday evening. Looking forward to it. The Prince Charles is showing Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind a few times over the weekend and I’m very tempted to go and see it again. So not really much planned for the weekend I guess. Some power gaming I’m sure.
